california here I come!

well, actually...california, there I went!


I went to thrift stores:


the flea market:


the japanese bookstore:


some museums:


took alot - I mean alot - of photos {including many old signs}:


learned how to hold a bunny so they can get their nails clipped:


ate alot - I mean alot - of food, even cotton candy:


saw dolphins:


and couldn't help but keep repeating "I'm not in kansas anymore":


I had a wonderful time visiting my sister {hi sue!} and all those photos I took...well, you didn't really think there'd just be one post did you? it's going to be all CA all the time around here for a little while, hope that's okay :)

    I like the hanging lamps. Were those made of glass or plastic? Either way, they are too retro cool!

    These are wonderful, next time you travel to California come visit Ojai! about 35 minutes away from Oxnard.
